cruiseliner64

Some real nice rigs in that video....including some Euro trucks.It shows the American iron has loads more style than Euro trucks.... Paul

Some truck ok but too new for me.When I drive I like to drive.I dont like a computer to drive for me..I know Im an old dog that hates new tricks.... Paul

Thanks Joey.We appreciate your help....and thanks to terry too. Paul

Yes a air switch on the shift lever. Paul

Thanks for the reply Joey.I seem to have the air operated 6 speed terry spoke of in his reply.I tried to post a picture but it wont post.Theres a large and a small air cyinder on the back of the gearbox.Theres also a filter for the air too which i have changed.It all appears to work ok but if theres something that should be serviced regulary id love to know. Paul

Joey,does cleaning and re-lubeing the rear range cylinder apply to the 6 speed in our Cruiseliner? If so is it a big job.I would not have any experence with Maxitoqure gearboxes and as our truck was lying up for 14 years this is something that might be a good idea to do... Paul

Seen a few of these Fords here in Ireland,all of them from Turkey delivering here.Cant understand why they are not sold here.Not mad about the look of them but better looking than a Volvo....... Paul

Yeah hes some guy at bending and twisting those trucks...and a good laugh while he does it.Now theres a guy with skill and brains.Must be good too as hes insurance company approved too.I enjoy his channel... Paul

Here's a picture of a Dublin Ireland assembled F700 which ran from Ireland to Iran/Iraq in the 1970s.Im told it was dairy products out and back load with produce from Turkey.I'd love to have done that run....... Paul

No bother to these lads..no computers just brains and skill.Like the Western world 70 or so years ago.. Paul

The guy 3rd from the left is from Panama city Panama.He is my sons father in law and is visiting for Christmas.Hes a truck mechanic in Panama..... Paul

Yeah its plated for 150 ton operation.It was one of 40 identical units built in Allentown and shipped to Kuwait for a project that never was built.The trucks sat in Kuwait for 6 years before being sold off.A company in the UK bought 5 of them including our one but sold 2 off.Ours was bought by a owner operator who used it for heavy haul.After 3 years he sold it to a recovery company who didnt use it much.the next 2 owners had it for shows only.The guy we got it off showed it a few times then it was stored in a shed for 14 years.Its in really good condition and has 154,000 genuine miles on the clock.It is the only Cruiseliner in Ireland and we know of only 4 other Macks here.Heres a picture of her working when new paul

Hi all,We had the pleasure and privilage of taking part in a show and road run to raise funds for the l Cancer care unit in our local hospital.A great day was had by all.There were about 30 trucks 50 vintage cars and Toyota Landcruisers and about 300 farm tractors.We got the honour of leading the trucks on the run as our Cruiseliner was the oldest and rarest truck there.We raised 25,000 euro (27,000 US Dollars) for the Cancer unit.For me it is a good feeling to give something to people who are in need as we have been blessed with good health so far ourselves.Picture show me and some of the guys who took part... Paul

Looks great.Great feeling when you fix something and it works then move on to the next thing on the list.good luck with it....keep us updated. Paul

All great things take time.Just keep doing a little whenever you can and it'll all come together.You and me are just regular guys with regular jobs so it takes longer but so worth it in the end... Paul

Joey your truck looks fantastic...I'd fly to the US just to see it.....cant wait to see it finnished. Paul

Im with you all the way on this one JC.Sure I like mine to look good but like to use it too.... Paul

Ouch.....sounds nasty.Hope it went well for you.Best wishes for a speedy recovery... Paul

Thats the one im thinking of too🤣 oh boy these Scania guys have a lot to learn Paul

Go on say what engine...when I say it to the Scania heads over here they say no effin way.One guy said Scania wouldnt lower their standards and use an American engine.....little do they know... Paul

I thought that was the hood🤣🤣🤣 Paul

And mine!!!!! Paul

Proves my point...... Paul

I like them..... Paul

Yes they had it there ok...but what went wrong after that??? Paul
